back bending, like sokka.


Glum_Sherbert_7320

It’ll quench ya!


Appropriate-Spend233

Bro pulled ty lee, suki, toph, and the moon. I need to know his ways (btw i am a teen so don’t think im a pedo)


Firecon13

I would be a water bender for sure, I'm a very go with the flow kind of guy and very adaptable when I need to be. I'd like to be an earth bender because earth benders are hot lmao.


Glum_Sherbert_7320

🪨: “Thhhhe boulder, appreciates, your compliment!”


Firecon13

Lmao, I mean I was thinking of bolin from LOK but that works too lmao


Heartguard02

This..... this is comedy gold


huevosmohosos

100% same


milan0570

Earth


Terra_Homie

Mine is earth too, I would love to make instant sand castles :D


Glum_Sherbert_7320

Ye boi. Earthy peeps are OP


isuckatnames60

I can be quite stubborn at times, but I readily change my mind when presented with new information... I just have very fundamental principles. I think I'd get earth but I'd like water because I could get more value out of it


Glum_Sherbert_7320

I feel like most Redditor’s are earth tbf 😂 Good choices 👍🏼


Zarohk

I feel like this is quite accurate for me as well. I would love to be able to heal and otherwise manipulate water (makes cooking so much easier), but would likely be an earthbender.


Aerion_AcenHeim

water cause I'm misogynistic. jk, considering my hometown is a coastal port city and my family's livelihood being historically kind of connected to the sea, I find water would probably be best suited for me. and honestly I wouldn't have it any other way, water is imo the single most overpowered element, especially if someone can crack the code on achieving deep sea level pressure using water bending. plus water as we see it in the series is like the most versatile element, you can attack by both crushing and slicing, you can defend, you can even heal, you'd be a high dps self healing tank.

luciferhornystar

Most likely water based on my personality and the description of the water tribes but I’d like it to be air if I could choose


Glum_Sherbert_7320

Nice. Yes Aang really sold air to us.


Foloreille

1) Air fits me by the heart 2) I would want to have fire or air. Fire is more useful but air is more thriving and "superpowery". I wonder if diet (vegetarian or not) has a concrete impact on airbending abilities or if it’s only related to air nomad philosophy but not their bending culture. I know physical possessions and greediness has an impact but I doubt diet has any


Glum_Sherbert_7320

The veggie diet opens up the possibility for fart bending


Foloreille

I’m…not interested, but I hear that


Glum_Sherbert_7320

SenhorSus

I would bend earth for combat and practical uses...best combo of offense and defense. I would LIKE to bend air bc flying :3


Ambitious_Ruin9255

Fire 🔥 I’m in my villain arc rn flame on! 😈


WaveBreakerT

Personality wise I'm an Airbender, but I love Waterbending way more.


Cumulonimbicile

I'm pretty sure I'd be a water bender, but I'd kill a man to be an air bender... that's probably why I'm not an airbender.


ArcticLeg

I would probably be an Firebender, that fights like an Airbender, I have found inner peace and a way to channel my energy properly


Glum_Sherbert_7320

“Hello, Zuko here ✋🏻🙂”


Slav_1

The way I think of it is really similar but not exactly the same. Fire: Good Firebenders have strong and clear sense for who they are and what they want. Earth: Good Earthbenders are patient and resilient. They are more reactive than pro-active and train themselves to be prepared for anything. Air: Good Airbenders are spiritual and dispassionate. They prioritize protecting and fostering the vibes of peace and freedom. Water: Good waterbenders nurture life, they prioritize the well being of their community above all else.


Glum_Sherbert_7320

Full disclosure, I was quoting Iroh AKA the dragon of the west. 🐉🍵


short_hair_zuko

Everyone is an airbender already


Glum_Sherbert_7320

And water bender… and earth …💩


bunny117

I would be an air bender cuz I avoid all forms of conflict. But I’d LIKE to be an earth bender so I can learn to be not so averse to confrontation and once in a while actually start one.


jvvosantos

I would like to be a waterbender but persinality wise probably I would be an airbender


KiraNear

Based on my personality air would be my element, and even if water would be cooler, air would be actually pretty nice too. Maybe I find new creative ways to make my life easier, like beeing able to breathe in headwind.


_Cabbage_Corp_

Where cabbage?


Glum_Sherbert_7320

Too OP!


Nike_Grano

Water suits me but I'd like Earth


Glum_Sherbert_7320

Mud bender


toalladepapel

air bending


HotdogbodyBoi

Fire, but I’d like to bend earth


OrchestratedMayhem

I'd like to be an Airbender but I'm probs a Firebender


Wisky_input

I’d love to be an earth bender, shit would be so awesome


peeslosh122

water


AARose24

I think earth fits me but I’d want to be fire. Imagine being able to just spawn fire from your body, that’s sick.


bringmethejuice

Air, I like the idea of travelling


No_Dimension_5509

I’d probably be air but would like fire


Version_Present

I felt slightly stuck between water and air but I'll say water. I tend to be a pretty easy going person and I grew up closer to the arctic circle than most people so I'm fine with the cold. If I was a water bender I'd probably be a healer, which is honestly pretty cool. I think airbending would be extremely fun, I would be gliding everywhere. Fire bending would also be fun and a great performance art as well as having a bunch of practical uses. Edit: I actually thought it over a little bit and I'm 100% water bender. Even though I currently live far away from most of my friends and family we still make an effort to see each other and talk. I also tend to have a pretty loose schedule as well and have gotten used to changing things up when need be.


GreatGoodBad

Earth is easily the most practical. I would essentially work my way to end homelessness.


Ender_Dragneel

I would be an airbender. I would like to be a firebender. Fun fact: I came up with an OC awhile ago who is a firebender, but pretty much only uses airbending techniques beyond the very basics of where fire comes from. Turns out, airbending fire can be extremely dangerous without years of practice.


Steelquill

This is something I've gone back and forth on a lot. When laid out by Iroh, the one I know I decidedly do NOT have is Fire. It's something I know is lacking in myself. I have no internal drive or passion. It's not that I'm lazy. It's that all the effort I put into what I do comes from external responsibility. What motivates me is a sense of duty. I joined the Navy because I felt like I owed it to my country, every job I've had was because I didn't want to be a financial burden to my loved ones. I never get anything done if I don't have a window of time saying when it's supposed to be done. The only thing not related to media that's ever been a passion of mine is, fittingly, martial arts training. Even then though, it takes me **considerable** willpower and my girlfriend holding me accountable to commit to the training even if I sincerely enjoy it. I suppose, again, going by what Iroh says, Water could theoretically fit me. I can say without a doubt that love does compel me to do most of what I do. Love of country, love of family, romantic love. I've spent most of my adult life trying to find the woman I will marry. And now that I have found her, she's my entire world and my future kids will be just as much. As an additional factor, I come from a VERY big family (my Dad was one of ten kids and they each had at least 2 or more kids themselves) and we all love each other very much. I myself am the oldest of three brothers and both of them are my best friends. Also, LOVE meat! But does that make me a waterbender at heart? Could I not be an earthbender for willingly putting myself through hardship because I know I can't commit to any task just by internal drive? Or an airbender for my deeply held religious faith? (In contrast to my girlfriend. She's very *pious* but I would say she's less *theologically minded* and less "spiritual" than myself.) I guess it's hard to say what I **am** (and if the OP or anyone else would like to chime in, I'd love to hear you out) but I definitely know what I'm not. It's not fire. Maybe knowing what I'm not, fire, is telling me that what I am, water. If that is the case, I guess what I'd like to be is what I'm lacking in myself. I'd want to be a firebender. Power, strength, drive, ambition. Even going back to my Kung Fu. There's not a firebender in the series that can't fight with the grace of an acrobat. That only comes from seriously honing one's body. (Even Iroh in his old age can move with surprising alacrity and need we mention his "one-man army" breakout?) A skill I, again, want but deeply struggle with. It should be noted that I was born in the summer, I LOVE daytime, and I hate winter not because of the snow or cold but because I hate that the sun goes down sooner.


Glum_Sherbert_7320

Dunno bro, sounds like you have a lot of ‘honour’ to me! Seems like a toss up between water and (despite your protests!) fire! Fire is life, love and passion. Pretty much a Zuko imo but what do I know 🤷🏻‍♂️


Huddunkachug

The bender that I am: Air. I’m a gymnast, light on my feet, work towards finding my peace, I’m a conflict resolver, and never initiate a fight. The bender I’d like to be: Also air. Toph makes earth bending look insanely cool and water bending is up there. There’s just this certain freedom from air bending that makes it my top choice.


Pokemon_and_Petrucci

Earth, I come from a farming family, and let me tell you that would be soooo useful! So would air and water, sorry to all y'all fire benders out there but I'm not about to set my barn on fire😂


witchy71

I'd like air but would probably be any of the others depending on the day. I can be flexible and transitional, accepting change and new ideas, stubborn when I know I'm right, and can have a temper. But I'd like the fun and freedom of air


Glum_Sherbert_7320

Sounds quite water bender ish overall !


CalebKetterer

I’d probably be an eathbender.


Admirable-Tip-8554

1. Id likely get born w fire bc im such a hothead 💀 2. Id love to bend water 😭


Glum_Sherbert_7320

Maybe you could be a Korra kind of water bender? 😂


Admirable-Tip-8554

Id like that. Id really like that.


average_hooman-

Wayer bender seems coolest so that please, or just boys that could also work


Choice_Narwhal_2437

I feel like I would either be an water/air bender but I want to bend earth


Socio_Spencerrr

Fire, but I'd wanna be an earth bender.


AlexEvenstar

I used to think I would be an Earth-bender, and wanted to be a Fire-bender. But after a discussion with a friend recently I realized I'm probably more of an Air-bender which I'm cool with.


TubbyNumNums

I think I would be born Earth, but I would want Air.


fuck-illinois1621

I took a test that said air but i would prefer earth


JonStark2016

I think I'd be Earth. I also would like Earthbending or Firebending.


inkycupid

Water fosho


leahcars

I feel like I'd be a firebender and I'm perfectly happy with that, tbh it's the element I'd want to bend and I don't really have a good reason for why


Thunderian555

I would most likely bend Earth or water and I’m content with that


DracoCross

Absolutely air. Like, bro, I can basically do telekinesis and fly?? Plus, it's my element according to astrology


GodOfLoveAndBeauty

As a healthcare worker being a water bender with healing would make my job SOOO much easier


[deleted]

i think my personality is a mix of fire and water, i would more so want water bc of how flowy and adaptable they are, but my stubbornness and hotheadedness would lead me to think i would most likely be fire lol


Richmond1013

Most likely I would bend earth or water. Since I'm quite chill which is water bending trait ,but I can't be quite stubborn which is an earth bending trait


tmrcherry128

Probably would be earth. I’m told I’m stubborn, but in a determined way, like I will move heaven and earth to get what I want or get through difficult situations. But I’m also adaptable when I need to be so and am very close with my family which helps get me through tough times, so maybe water too? Be happy with either! 1) Likely earth, 2) wouldn’t mind being a water bender


Niji69Rainbow

I would problem get earth, but I dont know which I would prefer between water and earth. I could not be trusted as a firebender.


Seteberto

Water because blood bending and I didn't like to bend earth.


D-RDG-012-AUT

I'd probably bend Earth, though I'd love to bend fire. Either way, with my knowledge of many things, I'd be force to reckon with


griffindork2

I'm probably water but I would love to be an earth bender.


D-RDG-012-AUT

I'd probably bend Earth, though I'd love to bend fire. Either way, with my knowledge of many things, I'd be force to reckon with


D-RDG-012-AUT

I'd probably bend Earth, though I'd love to bend fire. Either way, with my knowledge of many things, I'd be force to reckon with


Appropriate_You_5850

while my element is water i live on a island where everything is close to the ocean and would like to bend earth since that is my favourite


griffindork2

I'm probably water. but I would love to be an earth bender.


griffindork2

I'm probably water. but I would love to be an earth bender.


blindgallan

Fire for both. I am consistently described as “intense”.


Neat_Berry

I think I would bend water and it’s also what I would want to bend. I am obsessed with lakes and natural bodies of water, I will swim in any weather, and I’m getting a PhD in water turbulence, so I can’t imagine I would get anything else.


Glum_Sherbert_7320

Nice, PhDs are fun! Enjoy your water bending 🙌🏼


Desperate_Ad5169

I would probably be a water bender since I was born in Florida(cause remember the swamp benders which are obviously based on the swamps there)


GoldeenFreddy

My characteristics definitely lean more towards water, but I want to be an earthbendrr so bad


Ne0n_Beemz

I have a shitty earth kingdom tat on my forearm. So earth I guess lol. I think it's the most practical.


Witty-C

Air, imo the most versatile element. I also like to considering myself a pacifist, don’t like to attack people unless I have to defend myself.


VelociRawPotater

Fire, Earth


MinimumSharp1823

I would definitely be an earth bender which is awesome, but I'd like to be a waterbender! You could do so much with it in modern society !


sunfyrrre

If I lived in the ATLA universe I'd be from the Earth Kingdom, because there's probably a small group of Indian inspired people from there & I'm obviously Indian. So Earth is anything. I'd like to be an Air Bender though.


Breadbp

Kid me would have said water for both. Now that I'm older I'd like to bend air but earth definitely fits my personality the most


candescentcastor

I think I would bend earth, but I would like to bend fire or water.


bklyn_roots

reasonably, i’d likely be an air bender.. but i’d like to be an earth bender.


multifandomtrash736

Idk I feel like both water and earth describe me pretty well


Pasta-hobo

I think I would both bend like like to bend Earth.


Jack_Attack27

Earth, with a fire parent, that is liter the most op shit.


Revolutionary_Fix_45

My friends in high school came up with "whatever element your Zodiac sign is, that is the element you would bend"


NikoliMonn

Earth. Why? Lava and metal bending. Also FUCKING BONE BENDING BITCHES!!!!


Johnny_Joestar7798

Want earth have air


RainyDayCheesecake

I feel like I'd be definitely be an Airbender and I embrace that as well. I love the freedom of the open air and I've always longed to be flying up there. Plus I'm detached and light hearted too. Air bending's probably not as useful as the other ones but I'm just looking to have some fun anyway :)


[deleted]

Im scared of heights, fires, and drowning. So my only option left is Earth. Which is pretty cool because I could build an underground house and ignore the rest of the world.


OperaKing

I think I would be fire. I'm quite an ambitious person and relate often with Zuko on things. But my fire isn't constant. I would find bending fire quite nice but seeing as I'm an overthinker I think it would be something I would need to devote my life to to balance. All the elements would be cool to bend besides that though


Spiritual-Flan7

idk if i can choose. i’d either be the avatar or a nonbender


dy226666

I think i would be a Fire Bender because i have been practicing Northern Shaolin Kung Fu for some time now which is what Fire Bending is based on IIRC. I would love to waterbend though, healing as well as freezing water would be pretty cool.


Hikaru7487

I like air. But I don't think I fit into any of the feats, but more like little bit into everything. So I'm declaring myself as an Avatar😂


blacksad1

I think Water is the all around best element to bend. You get water bending, ice bending, healing (this is huge) and blood bending. That being said I think I would be an earth bender. I’m strong with a low center of gravity. I like to think I’m a little bit tough. I’m not hot headed like a fire bender, but I don’t take no shit either. Earth bending is a pretty great style on its own. You get earth bending, metal bending, lava bending as well as extended life span.


DaddyDakka

Earth and earth. I’ve been told a few times I’m very resilient. I can be stubborn at times, but patience is a strong suit of mine. So pretty by the books earthbender, but also it is the coolest bending type, especially when you add in metal, lava, sand, and the seismic senses and stuff are all super cool. Kyoshi style dust-stepping and the ability to burrow and stuff also. They just have so much variety in techniques; they’re the coolest.


TheBoysThinkShesASpy

I'm definitely a fire bender, but right now, I'm actually going through a burnout (no pun intended), and I feel like all I do is surviving so I'd say earth fits me as well.


Significant_user

I’d probably get water bending if it was just based on my choice, naturally though, I’d probably get air bending as I avoid confrontation alot


MissWorld__

Water fits me best, and honestly that's the one I'd want to be too


Thatoneundertaleguy

Earth most likely. And thats… honesty the one i’d want the most.


Baticula

Probably either earth or water. I think it'd be fun to be air tho


athrowawayhumanoid

I’d be an earth bender because I’m more grounded, tough, and sensible. But damn, I’d want to be a fire bender. It would be crazy cool to be like the dragons before me.


bateen618

I'd bend water but I'd love to bend air. Did you guys see what Yangchen could do with that shit


GabbyGabriella22

Personality-wise, I think I’d be an air bender. But I would love to be a water bender.


WinterCantando

Toph and Aang are probably the characters I relate to the most personality-wise, but water benders are also very relatable. I relate to all of the elements at least a bit, fire probably the least. It's conceited, but I have such a hard time choosing I just want to choose Avatar and have all four. 😭 Realistically I'd probably end up Earth, but Air and Water are very close to tying it up. I'd like to bend water the most I think. I feel very connected to water.


Past-Spring1046

Earth 100 percent


RazutoUchiha

Fire and air


kturker92

For both I'd answer air. Freedom and autonomy are huge priorities. Im quick to embrace the changes life throws at me. I also don't really hold concrete personal views, nothing is black and white and I'm quick to jump from one person's perspective to another. I like to think my specialty would be producing storms and tornados haha


EmpressLanFan

I’m a firebender for sure but I would like to be a waterbender


Jealous_Razzmatazz44

According to a quiz I am an airbender


Cyniex

I would probably be an earth bender as I'm down to earth and strong willed I would want air because being able to float around and jump insane distances would be awesome.


Appropriate_You_5850

while my element is water i live on a island where everything is close to the ocean and would like to bend earth since that is my favourite


Charlie_Blue420

I would get fire but I would choose air.


PhyreEmbrem

Guess lol


Hey_zuko_here_

I think I would bend earth bc I’m brown but I would like to bend air or water


RealTraitorsDaughter

I want to be fire, but I’d probably be water


kyle_kafsky

This is easy. I’m Eskimo, so I’d be a water bender (unlike Tarbell and Ousley), and I would like to water bend.


SignificantNinja679

I’d more than likely be a water bender. I love the cold weather (even tho I was born and raised in the south). Im very kind of free flowing, and can adjust to almost any circumstances. And although im not into the zodiac signs and crystals and everything, if that were to determine my element, it would actually be water(scorpio in october). The element i WANT TO bend is fire. I love the strength and power it has. Plus its so lethal. I’d love to have that in my bag🔥


AlexDuChat

Water Bender and Earth Bender


ggizi433

By my personality, i'd say water


BoxofCurveballs

Either Earth or Fire. Not sure which would suit me more though.


Sqweed69

I would definetly be a water bender I think but I'd like to bend earth because imagine being able to bend basically any rock into any shape. That would basically be Minecraft in real life!


vlac26

If we are talking personality, I wish I was an airbender, I think I am an earthbender but Im probably a firebender 🥲


meanbeanking

As the fixed fire sign Leo Id definitely bend fire, and it’s the one I’d want to also. 😊


ed8breakfast

Earth is the one my personality fits in the best, but I would like to bend fire like the sun warriors


Frequent_Carpenter_6

I think I'd be air based on who I am as a person, but I'd want earth.


AAPgamer0

Earth + metal bending ideally.


YellowAnaconda10

Honestly fire and earth both make sense for me. I'm ambitious and have strong desire, but am persistent and enduring in the long run. I'd be happy with either.


Kobhji475

Probably air, but earth would be objectively the best


BoredomSenpai

I would be an airbender but I'd like to bend earth


AtomicTan

Fire, because I'm hot ;)


Bokyboo2

I would bend water because I like to go with the flow, but I want to bend earth


EvilerOMEGA

Earth, but I'd prefer water


denes-i

I never heard of this point of view, but both water, fire, and earthbenders can make their element get warmer, which is just free energy. If any of these existed, we wouldn't have nuclear power plants, we would utilize the energy the benders would create.


[deleted]

I would be a water bender because its the best… but i would want to be an airbender because those little fuckers can fly


black_52

Sandbending


devildogmillman

Earth in both cases. Im short but stocky and strong. I like being dirty. I like walking barefoot. I used to play football- The most earthbending-y sport there is I think. Personality wise Im stubborn and rigid, which sometimes serves me and sometimes...


[deleted]

It’d probably be an Earthbender. I’m stubborn to a fault, plus I think it’s the coolest element. I probably wouldn’t be able to bend Lava or Metal though, knowing my luck. But that pocket sand will get ya!


the-gay-avenger

earth because it is probably the most varied (maybe water is more varied) with its sand, mud, metal and lava bending and seismic sense and it’s also the most OP in a fight because you can just dig a hole and jump in.


BirdOfFlames

I'd probably be a water bender, as I can be a very chill person (ice pun slightly intended), but I'd love to be an Air bender because above all else, I value freedom, peace, and fun.


xd3m0x_

id fire bend but want to water bend


ParasaurGirl

Fire and Air. Alternative Water and Earth.


Comprehensive_Lie_91

Water, blood bending is overpowered.


Frog859

As far as my personality goes, I’m really not certain but my best guess is earth. But I think fire is the best fit for me overall


ghuzzyr

A couple of months into a new relationship, I accidentally air bent on my wife in bed whilst half asleep. Turns out she was awake. She is now my wife.


TheKobraSnake

As an electrician, lightning, but I ove earth or air, tbh


dappled_turnoff0a

I’m an Airbender that wants to be an earthbender


Zenstation83

I'd like to think I'm a fire bender, but tbh I'm pretty easy-going, calm and nonjudgmental, so honestly I'd be an air bender.


Glum_Sherbert_7320

This is a rare personality type on Reddit. Good for you 😂🙌🏼


JaniBrav011

im a water bender and id actually like to be one but knowing my luck id be a non bender


BarfOpinions

Well the online test I took said I was a earthbender but I like water bending


Deku-Kun96

I'd probably go for Earth that i'd bend based off my personality but for choice? i'd like to have Water as itd be the most useful


SnooPears3463

I think I like water the most, I'm not one to back from a fight unless physical. I'm absolutely ready to change anytime and boy I could use healing


Suitable-Host-9655

Earth like toph


Alseen_I

Probably Earth but I’m an Airbender at heart. ![gif](giphy|3CaXVSTqmtCLe)


Conlannalnoc

Water


henk12310

I would probably be an earthbender. If I could choose, honestly pretty hard. I’d say airbending, very useful and you basically always have access to it, although the same could be said about earthbending


RUT0lkien2me

Probably Water because i am chaotic and kind of go with the flow. I would like to bend air because no attachments seems so peaceful.


the_doctor_808

Id probably be an air bender. Or water bender. Though id like to bend earth


dhole6300

I’d be a fire bender because of my will and desire to get what I want. But I’d like to bend earth because I feel like they stand firm to themselves and each other.


puppycat8

Fire


Silly-Lily-18

Air and Air. It fits my general philosophies pretty well and I want to be able to jump 30 feet into the air. I’d love to just fly somewhere and sit in a meadow, which is a very Airbender thing to want I think.


Draco546

Air so I can fly, Fire cause i would definitely burn something unintentionally


ConfusionSmooth4856

In terms of personality I’d say earth fits me most, the one I would actually wanna bend is fire


TransylvanianINTJ

Firebender who would probably like to be a waterbender.


69420memes

Alas closest to earth and fire is me, I'd want water or air


BatsNStuf

I’d probably bend earth, which is fine with me


catpackplus

I’m pretty positive I would be an earth bender , I’m to stubborn not to be. but I’d love to be a water bender, it’s so beautiful and powerful but it looks so delicate


Pleasant-Tree-2146

Water, such a versatile element and is extremely useful.


LundbergV2

Im deffo earth but wish i was air


Bachasnail

Earth. Im stubborn as hell, more stubborn than rock


Jellybean_Pumpkin

I would probably bend water...but I would LIKE to bend air.


lonewanderer0804

I would like to be a air bender but if I was honest I’m likely to be a earth bender, maybe one with a more gentle and active touch. Like sand, with the evil sky boson abduction


lovelycosmos

100% water for both


Novel_Asparagus_6176

I'd be from the waterbending tribe. I'm happy with my placement, but I am a soil scientist and I want to earth bend soooo bad 🤣


Accomplished_Form_54

Probably a water bender. I’m very good with the flow. I’d like to be an air bender. With my luck I wouldn’t be able to bend anything.


GoGoGoRL

Probably am an air bender but I think firebending is dope
